What Students Are Saying
there are cafeterias at john jay that is standard dining. since john jay is in new york city, one can find chinese, thai, greek, and italian food, all in one block!
Christine from New York, NY
The food here is good but it's pricey >.< !
I know that on some days they have student specials but if your like me and trying to save your bucks it probably wouldn't work in your favor to eat at the school cafe everyday. There is also lots of vendors out side of campus so no worries you'll have options to choose from.

Branda from Brooklyn, NY
We have Starbucks and hundreds of other varieties of food. If you don't like the food inside the building, you can walk down the street and get a slice of pizza; or you can walk down the steps of the building and get a gyro; you can ever get a deli sandwich from across the street!
Sundas from Coram, NY
Not only are there a large and smaller cafeteria, a cafe, and small coffee stands available but there is also the city. Outside of John Jay and in each direction there is and abundance of restaurants, cafes, bars, and other dining areas.
Stephanie from New York, NY
John Jay is located at the center of Manhattan isle, so you will be subject to many cultural cuisines. Also enjoy the view of our beautiful city of New York.
Brauli from Bronx, NY
Great. There's a variety of food; so just take your pick. But if you do not like what is served, you can always to the nearby restaurants or street vendors.
Annette from Corona, NY
CUNY John Jay has a cafeteria and cafes on campus which is very affordable and efficient when students are on the run.
